I am working on my January calendar and I plan to do a "Let it snow" themed day. I have a couple of activities I plan to do such as making crystalized snowflakes, sugary tortilla snowflakes, Frost Bingo and possibly have a snowball fight with fake snowballs. I am wondering if anyone else has any cute ideas?
You have some great ideas already and sounds like you all will have a ton of fun. Keeping with the snow theme maybe you could make homemade snowglobes? All you would need are a small glass jar, a plastic figurine for decorations (maybe wintery trees), glitter, water, and hot glue or super glue. Glue the figurine to the inside part of the lid, add water and glitter to the jar, put the lid back on and superglue it shut, then turn it upside down and give it a good shake!
I love Golden Carers, it's a fantastic resource! I not only find great activities for my seniors to do but have also inspired me to make my own activities to share as well. Thanks so much & keep up the wonderful job!
